Hi all,
Thanks to Jon Dyte there's a new IPC (inter-process) transport in
0MQ/2.0 trunk (git rev. a507d16).
Using IPC transport instead of loopback TCP transport cuts latency by
one third (on Linux).
To use IPC transport specify a filename in the connection string:
zmq_bind (s, "ipc:///tmp/myendpoint");
and
zmq_connect (s, "ipc:///tmp/myendpoint");
Note that IPC transport is not implemented on Windows platform.
Martin
